However, I could not find any definition for these macros. Nor does the package docs mention what to install in order to get them.
[...] This Typeable macro issue is due to the Typeable.h header, which used to be distributed with GHC. It's not distributed with the GHC head anymore -- are you using ghc 6.5?
Ah, yes. This is because I want to build hIDE. The hIDE readme suggested to use http://scannedinavian.com/~lemmih/hs-plugins, but scannedinavian seems to be dead. Anyway, in the meantime the suggestion has been fixed, it now points to http://darcs.haskell.org/~lemmih/hs-plugins which I just downloaded. So, maybe all troubles go away now.
You can work around it by copying Typeable.h from the darcs repository into the include/ directory of your ghc distribution, or using ghc 6.4.x
I'll try the version above and see what I get. If it doesn't work, I'll try copying the Typeable.h file from somewhere. Many thanks! Ben
